Research on psychopathic traits

1. Glim and superficial charm
2. Grandiose self-worth
3. Need for stimulation or prone to boredom
4. Pathologically lying  
5. Conning and manipulative
 6. Lack of remorse or guilt
7. Shallow affect
8. Callousness and lack of empathy  
9.  Parasitic life style  
10. Poor behavioral controls
11. Promiscuous sexual behavior  
12. Early behavioral problems
13. Lack of realistic and long term goals
14. Impulsivity
15. Irresponsible  
16. Failure to accept responsibility for owns actions  
17. Many short term marital relationships
18. Juvenile delinquency
19. Revocation of conditional release
20. Criminal Versatility

While looking at these characteristic I think that my character of Rose has many of these traits and with this she is also very intelligent. This is why I believe she needs to be on drugs as otherwise she would be causing situations within the facility which wouldn't be able to be controlled. One of the characteristic she defiantly has is poor self control and we know this as she managed to kill a child which she didn't prevent herself from doing. However when she is in the facility I believe she has began to rehabilitate as she begins to control what she does as in swearing and how much she talks although I also believe this is because this is the drugs shes on. The next trait I believe she doesn't have is being irresponsible because in a handbag she has the book of rules that she constantly  refers to when people are doing something wrong which I think is in a  way a psychopathic tendency as she obsessing over the rules. She also doesn't have empathy as she when she talks about natty the child she used to baby sit and killed she has no remorse and doesn't care about what she does. She speaks about what she got up to with Natty and tried to convince herself that she didn't hurt her.
